ERDI is proud to announce its first sponsored CrossFit athlete, south east regional competitor Brian Rottman. For those of you that are unaware of what CrossFit is it can be described as the principal strength and conditioning program for many police academies and tactical operations teams, military special operations units, champion martial artists, and hundreds of other elite and professional athletes worldwide.

If anyone going to Wodapalozza would like a FREE shirt to wear please feel free to come by our office and pick one up. It’s on a first come first serve basis. Men’s and women’s shirts are available and they look AWESOME.

Crossfit has become known as the go to fitness regiment for individuals looking to enhance their level of fitness. Police, fire and rescue teams are risking their lives on a daily basis and staying fit is one way to ensure optimal performance on the job. It is common to find CrossFit gyms located inside police and fire stations across the country and we feel that partnering with a CrossFit athlete would fit our thinking outside the box mentality”, stated Stephanie Miele Carney.

Brian Rottman, aka Rotty, is a regionally ranked athlete in the southeast region and a force to be reckoned with both inside and outside of the gym. Not only is Brian our sponsored athlete but we are proud to announce that he is the newest addition to the accounting department at SDI / TDI / ERDI World Headquarters. Brian’s work ethic, positive attitude and value system made him the ideal candidate for both a sponsorship and position at the company…welcome aboard!

Over the course of the next few months we will be positing updates about Brian’s upcoming events and his progress during the CrossFit Open which will be starting in the next few weeks. This weekend we will be posting updates from Miami’s Wodaplooza event in which Brian will be competing in the Elite division. This division is by invitation/qualification only and is made up of some of the best CrossFit athletes in the world. Stay tuned for more updates and wish Brian good luck!

All of us at ERDI are proud of him and can’t wait to watch the next event. “I had a great time this weekend working out with some of the best athletes in Cross Fit and representing ERDI. I knew that ERDI was very popular dive company in South Florida, but I was blown away by all the support I received from other Fire Fighters and Police Officers who were also competing or were spectators. I’m looking forward to the next few months of competitions and meeting more ERDI Divers from around the country”, stated Team ERDI Captain Brian Rottman.
